Hi,

Regarding the documentation and code:
>From a quick glance, the LNB/QPSK2 code follows the documentation fairly good.
I guess it could do with a deeper check (I could see that at least the FEC switch case does seems to have some invalid values) but I would prefer
that this is done by someone that actually has a DVB-S(2) card.

Henrik
